Installed it today and it knackered both 32 bit and 64 bit versions on my PC. did a System restore to fix the problem... Now back to IE8 OK.



I don't like IE but we need it for certain banks whose websites make use of undocumented features of IE and therefore don't function properly in Chrome, Firefox etc.



Make sure you take a restore point before installing any version of this browser.

Groucho also installed it today working fine on 64 bit mind you a new laptop from uk last week hence an uncluttered machine.

My machine runs both 32 bit and 64 bit versions and is uncluttered having been built recently. It's not a laptop. It's an 8gb Quad Core Desktop.
